When the crystal current diode current is large, the bias is ______________?

Correct answer: A. forward

  • A. forward
  • B. inverse
  • C. poor
  • D. reverse

Explanation

A large diode current normally occurs under forward bias, when the junction barrier is reduced and majority carriers cross the junction easily. Reverse or inverse bias permits only a small leakage current until breakdown.
